Qualifying Guidelines
- All qualifying performances for running events must be made on a standard indoor or a 400m outdoor track. However, for Race Walk events only, road race times are acceptable.
- Qualifying marks must be made and verifiable in one of the following:
- USATF- or IAAF-sanctioned events,
- events at collegiate meets which prescribe to or exceed USATF competition rules, or
- high school meets, except duals and triangulars.
- All qualifying marks from outdoor competitions must be attained between Friday, July 4, 2003 through Sunday, June 20, 2004. Qualifying marks from indoor competitions must be attained between Saturday, November 29, 2003 through Sunday, June 20, 2004. Qualifying marks for combined events must be attained between Friday, January 3, 2003 through Sunday, June 20, 2004.
- A manual time may be used for qualifying only if no F.A.T. qualifying time exists for the race during the qualifying period. A manual time may not supersede any F.A.T. qualifying time for an event. Qualifying manual times are always the F.A.T. qualifying time minus the last zero for events 3000m and longer, the F.A.T time minus 0.14 for events 400m - 1 Mile, and the F.A.T time minus 0.24 for events 300m and shorter.
- Times submitted in hundredths of a second must be F.A.T. times.
- An entered athlete attaining a qualifying mark within one-tenth percent (0.1%) of the standard for a running event, or 3 cm below the standard for the discus, javelin, or hammer, or 1 cm below the standard for other field events may declare their desire to compete during the normal declaration period. Athletes within this allowance may be accepted into the competition by the Sport Chair when positions are available in existing heats or sections in running events or when the number of competitors in a field event is fewer than 12.
